Anna Kendrick on leaving comedy after an abusive relationship

Anna described this partner “basically” as her “husband,” noting that they had been together for six years.

“About six years later, somewhere around there, I remember saying to my brother when things first got out of hand, 'I'm living with a stranger.' “I don’t know what’s going on,” she remembers.

“It was so alarming and it made it much easier for me to accept that I was crazy or doing something wrong,” she said.

“I can't mention that I'm scared of you because if I do you'll get really scary.” She remembered thinking.
